The deadline for applications to have a stand at the show, which will be held on Friday, July 10, Saturday, July 11, and Sunday, July 12, is this Sunday. More than 200 stands are already booked for the event at the Kent Showground in Detling, with the fixed Alu-frame shedding completely sold out.

“Every year we have a wonderful mix of stands and this year will be no exception, the food stands in our Food Tent and those in the large Produced in Kent area prove to be very popular.”
